Ray Romano admits he suffered a bit of grief after ending the nine-year run of CBS's "Everybody Loves Raymond."
"It's weird. It was hard. It's hard," he divulges. "All of a sudden I had all this free time and I was excited, but then after about three or four months it's like you lost a family member...There's a sense of loss."
Romano says he sought the advice of a therapist, and even started going to sessions twice a week. After the show ended, he says, "all of the people that you worked with go away."
He is happy that he continues to spend time with his former TV family, including Brad Garrett with whom he did a standup comedy tour. He's also scheduled to appear at a charity benefit with Patricia Heaton and Doris Roberts.
Because every dark cloud has a silver lining, Romano is happy about being able to spend time with his family, especially his four children. "I found out that they're mine," jokes Romano of his four kids, Alexandra, 15; twins Matthew and Gregory, 13; and Joseph Raymond, 8.
